Hawaii Set (1 Viewer)

[scbill88]

I literally started on this set last night so there are a lot of tweaks planned. Also, I did these in photoshop so I hope there is a way to make them vectors when I am done.
If not I am sure a good vector graphics designer can come close.

generally speaking you'll want a different base color for each denom, otherwise i like the inlays!

 

[rustycheerio]

edit;
looking closer they are different. sorry they're so dark they looked the same on my end-

@davin

Maybe a volcano themed set, including Hawaii and Iceland

Soooo can we say this was loosely inspired by the other non-continental US state set?

Absolutely!

Wow!! That's amazing lol I should be picking Powerball numbers.

Graphic is nice, but I would rethink the type…it looks upside-down to me. Maybe because there’s only 2 instances of “Island Poker Club” , it doesn’t have the wrap-around repeating pattern like the Aurora chips shown in the later post.
Maybe the type is readable on the top above the volcano, or maybe do “island poker club” readable on the top, and “Maui, HI” readable on the bottom.

That is one of my tweaks along with the font (which I think is to small). I think it would be better if the top was upside right and the bottom was upside down. Photoshop fought me every time I tried to change it so I will fix it in Mockup #2. Thanks for the Input!

This design is hot , well done. As long as the base colors aren’t so dark where it’s hard to distinguish them, you’re in great shape, and the edge spots assist with this.

better text I think........

Nice typeface. I still prefer “Maui - Hawaii” not be upside-down when viewing in this position.
And have you considered making the dollar sign smaller? It’s distracting when it is full sized compared to the other numbers, imo.

Yea the dollar sign can use some work. I think I am going to leave the Maui though. It can lay any direction on the table and both text lines up means there is only 1 correct way to look at it....That would kill my OCD. Before the next mock up I will flip it and see if I can live with it. Thanks

OCD? Mine is going crazy with it upside-down! I definitely agree with @Colquhoun on this one but hey, you gotta play/live with them...

 

[Colquhoun]

Yeah, I don’t think most chips have it going in both directions. If the graphic and the title are facing one direction, why make the location face a different way?
Just a few quick examples

 

[scbill88]

I hear ya.....this will be lots of trial and error to get it just right....here is the final "upside down set". Ill flip the text next week sometime and see how they look.

 

[Himewad]

Definitely flip the Hawaii text so it’s right side up, matching the upper text orientation.

That seems to be the consensus...I am on it tomorrow.

I should have bought this set! I call "dibs" if it comes back up for sale...

Would be a nice to have both of them. I like where this is going.

 

[scbill88]

I missed out too. I have never been to Alaska but have been to Maui 3 times. So, I feel a little connected to this set I am building. While it is not a 100% original idea, I feel it breaks away just enough to call it my own.

 

[scbill88]

yea I agree this is much better.....

When I think Hawai’i, I think bright, happy, and vibrant colors… this is dark and depressing Hawai’i.

Are you from maui ?

 

[scbill88]

Are you from maui ?

No, but I have been there a bunch, and if I had no family ties, that would be my home. It is my happy place.

 

[scbill88]

Getting closer to final product....different currency sizes and "$" symbols are bugging me, but I flattened the images so that means starting from scratch. Yikes

+1 for Hawaii

Here’s a fun Hawaii inspired set…I would guess whoever helped with this design must be super good looking!

Volcano inlays look nice
